If Slenderman comes to Dead by Daylight, what would his power be like?

I was thinking, as people cry out for Five Night at Freddy as a DbD chapter, another classic game also came to mind, Slender the Arrival, but I want to know what you think about it, they think Slender would be a killer in Dead by Daylight ?

    Maybe he could have a secondary objective for the survivors with the pages? I'd expect him to have a teleporting ability and a stalking ability to represent how he's like in the games. Maybe a special attack with his tentacles that can be activated after stalking for a while, and the pages give his power a disadvantage but an advantage at the same time.

    He should be able to change your perception while in a chase, he should be able to appear in multiple places, having his decoys mimicking his movement. People on generators should also be affected somehow, like random skill check sounds. multiple fake success zones slightly blurred. He should also be able to mess up your vision distance so you cant really see what tile you're heading to.

    Hard to say, probably some kind of secondary objective like glitchboi brought up. I imagine a part of it would be messing with the information survivors get like BigBall said. I think it's an interesting concept, but actually licensing that must be difficult, right?

    Making streamer cry out with overly exaggerated screams while everyone else rolls their eyes.

    A passive power/active power, maybe a reverse Michael Mayers of sorts. If a Survivor looks at you, they experience static that fills a power meter. The closer they are, the faster the meter builds. At full meter, Slenderman can send out a tendril that has a range of a demo leap with a 1-2 second build up before throwing the tendril. This essentially behaves as a range attack that takes off one health state, Nothing too extreme.

    but because the ability only takes off one heath state, the build up takes 12 seconds to charge from a distance but doubles at close range (demo lunge range maxes the build up)


    Since this mechanic is entirely dependent on the survivors looking at the killer, behavior will need to take that mechanic and fine tune it so it's more reliable for this killer and for ghost face too!

    Warped Reality:

    Passive: All survivors within 36 meters of you hear noises emanating from objects in the world at random. Noises include: Generator Kicking/popping, Pallet Breaking, Crow Cawing, Survivors injured grunting, Survivor Screaming, Pallet Dropping, Terror radius within 16 meters of the object, Chest opening, Hook Sabotage, and Rats.

    Active: Pressing the Activate power Button gives all survivors in your TR the Oblivious and Blindness status effects, Any survivor that looks at you when you activate this power, has their vision distorted for 30 seconds, and increases the frequency of Warped Reality's passive effects. Survivors who successfully escape a chase after looking at you, Hallucinate pallets and open windows where there are none until the duration expires.

    Special: Shadow Arms. Pressing the Activate ability button on a survivor affected by Warped Reality's active ability sends a few shadow arms at them inflicting damage if caught. The range is 8 meters, and has a cooldown of 2 seconds. Shadow arms can also be used to damage Generators, and Break Pallets, or if targeting the ground, propel you forward to the their target location.
